James Quigley Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Right got my new Koxx bowns in the post this morning and, since I cant ride, thought I'd put them in some Heatsink CNC backings.Took some pics to share, I think they look the nutts and should work a beast too.Enjoy.

CurtisRider Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 but he has different metal backings, his are gold.heatsink did a limited run of gold parts kb browns are still one of the best pads around, good choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 i think savage uses the kolpen backings. they were my 'inspiration' for the heatsink design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Sorry, i didn't mean he was definitely using Heatsinks, just pointing out they are available in gold too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Quigley Posted May 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 kb browns are still one of the best pads around, good choiceMy thinking exactly, from my experience their performance is 1st class and the wear rate is phenominal.Cant wait till I'm back on my bike.

Simpson Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 ill do this when my heatsink reds run out and put the rimjam material into them cos i dont trust the V3 backing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walleee Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 I ran brown's for a while, they're good alright, but not as good as my coust's, mind you my coust's are in alu backing's browns were in plastic..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Quigley Posted May 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 My mate had the cousts in the CNC backings (actually where I stole the backings from) they worked fine for a while then performance seemed to drop as they got older, weird.

Janson Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 i did a year or two back. it's really good, though the pads get rounded off a fair bit after a while due to them rocking around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
